Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge


Hello!  I am sharing a card that I made for the Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge.  I've been wanting to play along with this challenge, and managed to get my card done just in time!  The Paper Smooches images are just so cute...  they make me happy!  :)

Here is my card:


This was our inspiration photo:

I used the colors orange, brown and green, and made my card in the shape of a tree.  The tree top was cut with a nestie die.  The tree trunk was cut free handed.  I used dies to cut the balloons and the clouds.  The bird was stamped with Stazon ink and colored with a blender pen and ink.

The baker's twine is the twine that the Paper Smooches stamps come packaged in!!!  How cool is that?  :)

Thanks for stopping by today!
